Figure 39: Spanning Tree Protocol
BRIDGE Sets STP bridge link parameters.
The following items are displayed on the STP page:
◆ Spanning Tree Protcol — Enables/disables STP on the AP.
(Default: Enabled)
◆ Priority — Used in selecting the root device, root port, and designated
port. The device with the highest priority becomes the STP root device.
However, if all devices have the same priority, the device with the
lowest MAC address will then become the root device. (Note that lower
numeric values indicate higher priority.)
(Default:32768; Range: 0-65535)
◆ Max Age — The maximum time (in seconds) a device can wait without
receiving a configuration message before attempting to reconfigure. All
device ports (except for designated ports) should receive configuration
messages at regular intervals. Any port that ages out STP information
(provided in the last configuration message) becomes the designated
port for the attached LAN. If it is a root port, a new root port is selected
